Photographing animals is my great love and I have created animal portraits of many species, wild and tame, from cats to dogs, horses, cranes & even ducks! (The ducks were pets). I also donate pet portraits to good causes (feline causes given high weight!) when I see one. Here are a few of my, um, "subjects:"
|
Chloe, Mokie, Tessie and Cocoa, 2 Ragdolls adults & 2 Maine Coone Kittens
Will reveal how I got them all to pose in a future post! |
|
Fergus, a gorgeous Maine Coon rescue cat, now adopted |
